The Mini platform is an automobile platform shared among city cars of the Fiat Group.[1]

Specification

It was originally based on the engineering concept of the Fiat Ecobasic, and is applicable to either front- or four-wheel drive vehicles, using only front-mounted transverse engines. The standard version was designed for MacPherson strut front suspension and torsion beam rear suspension but the four wheel drive version was re-engineered with independent semi-trailing arms rear suspension and electronic Limited slip differential.

The first version of the platform was issued in 2003 with the introduction of the second generation of Fiat Panda.[2] The architecture was developed by Fiat in Poland, Italy and Brazil.[3]
